Matthew Perry's Tragic Battle with Drugs: The Dark Reality of His Final Days
Matthew Perry's autopsy report revealed that in the weeks leading up to his death, he had been taking testosterone shots, which made him "angry and mean." The report also revealed that he had a lethal amount of ketamine mixed with buprenorphine in his system, along with other medications such as Tammoxifen, antidiabetic medication, and nicotine lollipops. Multiple open and empty medication bottles were found in his assistant's bedroom, indicating heavy reliance on prescribed and over-the-counter medication. Perry had been receiving ketamine infusions regularly but had stopped a week and a half before his death. The report suggests that his use of ketamine was recreational and not medically supervised. Despite his struggles with addiction, Perry was in good spirits and had plans to launch a foundation to help others with their addictions before his passing.
